I bought a set from Corvettes of Houston, they don't stick out at all.

It's all about what YOU like, and what appeals to YOUR visual senses. You will get any number of responses from the forum. Ask others that have the same color Vette as your to post pics of their lettering so that you can see what different types/colors would look like. This will help you decide.

Mine are flush except for the point of the R. It catches the wash mitt

SS seems to look good on all colors. More expensive no doubt but if installed right and taken care of, i.e. wax occasionally, they will last the lifetime of your Vette.

I have the SS inserts letter for the front and back and love them. I had them on my camaro as well. Go ahead and spend the extra $ you will be glad you did in the long run. Hope this helps!
